SINNERS Bites Back With IMAX Re-Release For Halloween
Ryan Coogler's vampire epic was a horror hit earlier this year.
Fresh off its FANGORIA Chainsaw Awards sweep, Ryan Coogler's vampire epic Sinners is returning to theaters again just in time for Halloween.
Starting on October 30 for one week only, Sinners will play in IMAX at select locations across the country, marking the second IMAX re-release of the R-rated horror since its release in April of this year.
Sinners, currently the biggest original Hollywood movie since Christopher Nolan's Inception, stars Michael B. Jordan as troubled twin brothers Smoke and Stack, who return to their hometown of Clarksdale, Mississippi to start again after almost a decade working for the mob, only to discover that an even greater evil is waiting to welcome them back.
Alongside Jordan, Hailee Steinfeld (Bumblebee, True Grit), newcomer Miles Caton, Jack O’Connell (28 Years Later), Wunmi Mosaku (His House, Deadpool & Wolverine), Li Jun Li (Babylon), Jayme Lawson (The Woman King), Omar Benson Miller (True Lies) and the legendary Delroy Lindo (Da 5 Bloods) star.
In an official press release, Warner Bros. had the following to say of the rerelease:
“This limited engagement offers audiences the chance to experience one of the most original and emotionally resonant films to ever reach the big screen in the way Coogler originally envisioned: presented in premium format on Imax 70MM and Imax screens […] The re-release reunites audiences with a story that spoke volumes when it first premiered—both for its ambitious visual storytelling and for the passion and artistry of its stellar cast and crew.”
On its original run, Coogler's first post–Black Panther racked up $366 million globally against a $90 million budget, which only stands to get bigger with this most recent rerelease. It could also help Sinners‘ chance at the Academy Awards, so show up and keep the conversation going.
